NEW ROTATION: Vassili, Nader and Bushwhacker

(N8o) #41

Wasn’t Bush just on here a few weeks ago? Do I really have to deal with this AGAIN?!

(cornJester) #42

Given that there are only 3 engineers and they promised that an engineer will always be in rotation, yes he was and yes you do.

(frolicsomeCrane) #43

I hate how no matter what time it is, everyone can always have an engineer at the ready.

(JesseKomm) #44

The only way it could be worse is if it was RedEye instead of Nader.[/quote]

Just you wait, one day in the future we’ll see a RedEye, Vassili, and Aimee rotation… I shudder at the thought.[/quote]

@JesseKomm Actually that will literally never happen. There will always be one engineer on free rotation, confirmed. This is because one isn’t given for free.[/quote]

Yeah I know, though to be fair they have plans on giving a starter engineer to accompany Aura and Skyhammer for new players. This frees up a slot in the free rotation.

(Iceqw) #45

hey stop with this annoying free rotation, it is fine to have them from time to time, but always ? continuosly? not funny at all

(JesseKomm) #46

It’s not meant to be “funny” as you put it, free rotations allow new and sometimes even experienced players to try something new and also adds more variety to the game rather than sitting around farming credits for a single merc… instead you get 3 free options for you to try out and see if they are worth buying. If you don’t like the choices… don’t play the rotation mercs, simple as that, they’re not going to stop doing it since it helps almost everyone else in the game.

(FilterDecay) #47

the heart rate sensor is a nice effect for the whole team.

(Yes) #48

Too bad it seems as though almost every Vassili doesn’t have one or they put it in bad spots.

(DxDark) #49

Nader is the noobs Merc, 100%. So nooby, in fact, that they will Marty RIGHT when Aura/Sawbonez/Sparks is about to res. -_-

That and nade spam. At least I’ll get to use my Gold card that has nothing of importance on it.

It’s not just new players… I’ve seen experienced Naders that just martyrdom through muscle memory and just never get revived by me. The grenade spam is bound to be extremely annoying… one Nader is dangerous but several will be bombarding the map. Best defense is Unshakable and a good Rhino honestly, you can take care of any amount of enemies that use explosives.

(watsyurdeal) #51

Rhino is easily the worst merc to have on free rotation. Nothing stops a game faster than a team full of them.

Well now everyone will be aware of what martydom is… again

[quote=“Faraleth;78060”]@MercifuL That reminds me of the time a level 2 began typing IN ALL CAPS IN CHAT LIKE THIS because he/she thought I was “hacking”. Wanna know why?

[spoiler]They said I had an “anti-headshot hack”, which caused them to miss. Yup. That was said. By an actual, living, breathing human. I think.[/spoiler][/quote]

they are cute when they’re still new to games aren’t them?

(InfernoKun) #55

Only Phoenix can save us now.

(JesseKomm) #56

Oh he will! Once we learn how to play him that is, first step is figuring out the best ways to use that healing pulse.

Like in the middle of the road, where it will survive for about 2 seconds…

Prepare for “martyrdom is OP” threads. I’m betting that at one time there will be 3 threads on it on the first page.

Or in their own spawn.

(Grave_Knight) #59

No it’s not. It’s a Tusken Raider, a female Stormtrooper, and some sort of Assassin Droid.

Also, the team with the most Tusken Raiders is going to lose.

It wouldn’t free the slot in free rotation…
They would probably make rotation containing 2 mercs like it was before.
(But less the mercs in rotation, better :tongue: because I hate when I have 6 of the same mercs in one game… in one team…)

EDIT: Actually, less mercs in free rotation would make more of the same mercs in one game :neutral: :disappointed:
